we all build the source, we all see the warnings. there is nothing to gain (which is worth gaining) by reporting it here.
> we all see the warnings I cannot possibly see what you see and vice versa. But I have seen programs which build without warning on one system and with warnings on another (depending on software versions, options etc). The reason for reporting it as a bug is not an attempt to "gain" something. A warning is an indication that something is not right and that's the reason for sharing it - in case someone may want to have a closer look before it leads to more serious issues.
(In reply to comment #2) > I cannot possibly see what you see and vice versa. Actually, the contrary is true.
